Hello,

I've used the Replace Resource function in the Assign Resource dialogue several times but today the Replace button is greyed out and I cannot 'swap' resources.

Below grab shows assigned resource and new resource, Replace button is greyed out.

Any ideas?

    John, several things to check (I cannot see the image you posted)

    • Might sound obvious, but worth checking, you aren't clicking on a different resource? you need ot have the original resource selected for the replace button to be visible
    • Security profiles - is there a database administrator you can contact? It's possibly becuase you are working in a database or a project within that DB where you do not have the "Edit Resource" privilege. Has it at all changed recently?

    This is in a SQLLite stand-alone database; are access rights the issue?

    If I select the original resource in the Assign Dislogue the Replace button becomes active; unfortunately, I'd like to replace the resource with another resource.

    All,

    Ah ha!

    I've figured it out!

    Select the oringal resource in the Assign dialogue, select Replace and *then* select the replacement resource!

    Apologies for the fire-drill!

    Thanks for your support.
